Re: hello again
Margot,
I think NH has given you a good reply to your post, and my own thoughts on your situation are as follows......
As NH rightly states, no coffee on a fast, as this will only add to your toxic burden and increase rather than decrease your levels of toxemia. A bit like pouring gasoline on a fire that you are trying to extinguish.
A water only fast will enable your body to cleanse itself in the quickest possible way, but also divert your digestive energy (the most demanding of energies) into healing.
Your body is constantly working to self-heal, and of course self-cleanse whether you are eating or not, but if you provide the ideal conditions to accelerate these processes (fasting) then the whites of your eyes should return sooner if not later.
Once your fast is broken, your lifestyle and healthy eating habits will continue with this cleansing and healing to achieve your aims.
You will get there eventually, it is just a matter of time.
